Both TODO.md backlogs and the README's architecture section still
described the Kalman-filter/heat-diffusion design that's since been
replaced by the delay-line Pot model and Kalman-free Smith predictor.
Check off the items that rewrite already fixed (heat-loss units,
transport delay vs. single-pole lag, three-Kalman-tuning), note how
the kn/sensor-noise item was resolved differently than proposed, and
add newly-spotted issues: brewpi.py wiring set_model_power
unconditionally (breaks pid_type "Normal"), kalman.py being dead code
in production, stale Kalman/kn keys in the config templates, and
debug print()s left in Pot.process().

THRESH_HOLD_IDLE/HOLD_HEAT/IDLE_HEAT/IDLE_HOLD/HEAT_HOLD/HEAT_IDLE in
tc_constants.py were hardcoded module-level constants shared by every
controller instance, so tuning the IDLE/HOLD/HEAT hysteresis required
a code change.
Replace them with DEFAULT_THRESHOLDS plus an optional
TempCtrl.Thresholds config section, merged at construction time in
TempControllerBase.__init__ so configs that omit the section keep
behaving exactly as before. Documented the new section in
config.json.templ; left config.json.sim without it to exercise the
default-fallback path.

Tracks open issues from a review that weren't fixed as part of this
branch's Smith-predictor and dedup work: non-configurable FSM
thresholds, Pid.scale()'s gain-scheduling hack, shared Kalman tuning
across the Smith controller's 3 filters, matplotlib imported at
module level in production code, no automated tests, and unchecked
config access.
